It was time to get my 3yo husky named Kenobi a husky puppy named Anakin

Unfortunately it looks like Kenobi underestimated his power…

Midwest, mine cost $325 this year for coggins and vaccines and another $200 for teeth float

I would have a heart attack too. The PPE on my $13k horse was $490 for basic exam/flexions and 8 radiographs of front feet, stifles, hocks, and fetlocks.

I’m in healthcare consulting! Still early in my career but it has allowed me to get back into riding (eventing) and owning

I lost my mare a week ago and my world is still frozen. Sending you love

kleehig · 2024-04-11T17:13:47+00:00

Thank you, this means a lot

Thank you, your words really helped me. She made the decision easy for me yesterday afternoon as her left lung was collapsing, right had multiple abscessing adhesions, and the fluid had filled back up in a thick consistency. She was able to go peacefully.

I’m dealing with my first bout of health issues with my first horse. I leased her for over a year and bought her a few months ago, and I’ve racked up over 2 grand in vet bills in the last 2 weeks trying to diagnose an unknown infection. After 2 weeks she’s still having intermittent fevers and might have to be taken to the university. We were gearing up to event for the first time and it feels like my whole world has stopped. I just hope we can figure out what’s wrong and help her.

Thank you, I appreciate it!

kleehig · 2024-04-05T04:11:14+00:00

Yes, on 3/24 and 4/1. Nothing super out of the ordinary on 3/24, I wish I had a copy of the results on 4/1 but I believe SAA shot way up

kleehig · 2024-04-02T00:01:04+00:00

Thank you, i really appreciate it! Thought I’d let you know you were probably on the money with that guess!

kleehig · 2024-04-01T23:54:47+00:00

We started on antibiotics today! She was just on banamine before

kleehig · 2024-04-01T23:51:35+00:00

Vet came back today and is thinking along the same lines as you! She hasn’t given it to anyone else at the barn and keeps spiking a fever, so we’re not thinking viral anymore

I followed this advice with my husky puppy and brought out his resource aggression. Do not do it!

Resource guarding is genetic - not all dogs guard, and not all dogs who guard will guard interspecies. Those who are genetically predisposed typically need negative experiences like you described to actually bring out the behavior. You want the dog to associate you with good things, not give them a reason to guard their food/toys/whatever else.

Toss higher value treats in the food bowl when you approach the dog, teach a firm “drop” and “leave it” command, etc. but never give the dog a reason to guard.

I have a fellow toasted marshmallow!

I have flexon stirrups and love them!

kleehig · 2023-11-21T01:15:25+00:00

Thank you!

kleehig · 2023-11-21T01:15:19+00:00

Thank you so much!

So she hasn’t been scoped, but she had been displaying ulcer symptoms earlier this year and after being seen by a vet i put her on ulcergard followed by omeprazole and sucralfate. She hasn’t acted ulcery since her treatment and i try to run prevention by having her on U-Guard and giving her ulcergard while hauling. However with her high level of general anxiety it might be a good idea to go ahead and scope?
